Personality Traits:
Baeden is a kind, loyal soul with the best interest of others in his heart. He’s not very social (by choice) and prefers to do most things alone but he’s not against having company if the invitation is put out there. He’s smart, independent and is perfectly content with living life as ‘the middle class.’
Skills:
Baeden is very fit, therefore the more rigorous tasks of day-to-day life come fairly easy to him. He’s also quick on his feet as well as quick-minded. He’s also an adept thief and although he hardly uses these skills anymore, breaking into a house or car is not at all beyond his abilities.
Biography (Before Earth):
Baelfire was born in a small village on the outskirts of the kingdom while his father, Rumpelstiltskin, was enlisted in The Ogre’s War. His father returned shortly after his birth and the two became nearly inseparable. Growing up, he hardly knew his mother as she was always busy with other things, as his father would often tell him. All in all, Baelfire never really knew what it was like to have a mother. Even though his was there, it was his father who tucked him in at night, read him stories, played with him, taught him how to work and so on.
When Baelfire was nearly ten years old, the age limit to be drafted into The Ogre’s War was dropped down to ten years old and within a few months, he would be drafted. His father became fearful of what would happen to him, and set off on a journey with promises to return and keep Baelfire out of being drafted.
Baelfire never saw his father again.
Nearly two weeks after his father’s departure, the village was under attack. Baelfire ran from home and eventually found his mother, Milah, and the two managed to slip out of the village without any notice. Mother and son were then cast into their own journey, braving the wilds until reaching the next village over where Milah learned about the portals that would be opened up to be able to send their children through for safety. Putting in their lot with them, Baelfire and his mother journeyed with the others to gain access to the portals despite Baelfire’s pleas to go and find his father first.
The Queen’s soldiers were upon them quickly, but Baelfire managed to slip through the portal before it closed, the last thing he saw being a sword slipping between his mother’s ribs and falling to the ground lifeless.
Biography (Life On Earth):
Baelfire spent his birthday living on the streets that first year. Having learned how to fend for himself at an early age, living on the streets in this strange new land wasn’t a difficult task. Two years later while raiding through a house on the richer side of town, Baelfire was caught by the owner’s daughter, a few years older than himself. She was understanding towards Baelfire’s situation and though he didn’t go into his past or where he came from, she accepted him and did what she could to help him.
He was kept in a hidden room in the nursery where the girl would sneak him food as often as she could and while the parents were out, he was allowed to come out and play. It only lasted a few weeks before the parents found out and Baelfire was taken to an orphanage immediately. When asked his name, Baelfire simply responded with 'Bae' since thats what his father preferred to call him, and his mother always defaulted to 'boy.' He was adopted rather quickly into a home that reminded Baelfire very much of his own and his name was quickly changed to Baeden. It was a trashy place, the father always gone and the mother always coked up on some kind of drug. He was quickly put to work in what Baelfire quickly realized wasn’t a family, but a job. He was forced to do the mundane tasks of a ‘gopher’ in the world of the drug trade, and hated every minute of it. He was beaten often, and fed very little. By the time Baelfire turned sixteen he had enough, and left without a word.
He has been living on his own ever since, working in construction since he left home and slowly climbing the ladder over the years and finally reaching a place in his life where he feels content.
Other:
Baelfire has a bit of a drinking problem and could be considered a bit of a ladies man when he has the time on the weekends to hit up a bar.
His birthday is also coming up very soon.
